general_protection result to die

[horseriver]

hi;
  
 does general_protection trap necessarily result to die ?
 
  when executing this instruction : mov    (%eax),%gs  ,$ip turns to be general_protection.  
  
  then it comes to debug()

  I have no clue for what has happend leads kernel to  go here . it denotes what?
 
  Are there some adices here?
  
thanks!
